SENIORS & COMPUTERS..........
As we Silver Surfers know, sometimes we have trouble with our computers.

I had a problem yesterday, so I called Eric, the 11 year old next door, whose bedroom looks like Mission Control and asked him to come over. Eric clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.

As he was walking away, I called after him, 'So, what was wrong? He replied, 'It was an ID ten T error.'

I didn't want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired, 'An, ID ten T error? What's that? In case I need to fix it again.'

Eric grinned ... 'Haven't you ever heard of an ID ten T error before?

'No,' I replied.

'Write it down,' he said, 'and I think you'll figure it out.'

So I wrote down:






ID10T



I used to like Eric, the little sh-t head.

Don't you hate it when an eleven year old is smarter than you. I'm on the family plan with my daughter and son-in-law.
When I first got my smart phone I downloaded a couple of 99 cent apps only to find out that there was a $9.95 monthly charge. Called my son-in-law and asked him to "get me out of this" which he did. Now his 13 year old daughter and I (age 71) are on parental controls so I can't buy anything without permission . Too funny.
